A storm caused surface flooding and knocked out power to more than 1,800 Consumers Energy customers on Saturday in Midland County.

The storm passed over the area quickly but left a significant amount of water over area roadways.

The Midland Police Department issued the following statement Saturday night: “Due to the storms, there are numerous power lines down throughout the City of Midland. If you do not need to leave your residence, you are asked to stay home for your safety.”

The Consumers Energy Outage Map indicated 1,802 customers remained without power Saturday night, mostly south of Wheeler Street and east of Eastman Avenue.
